- Add the CICS resource
definitions for the WebSphere server
to the CICS DFHSCD.
Run the copyZOS.sh OLASAMPS dataset_name script
to copy out the OLA samples and CSDUPDAT member to an MVS Partitioned Data Set (PDS). Then, run the
CSDUPDAT.jclsamp sample job to add the CICS resource
definitions for WebSphere Application Server to
the CICS DFHCSD. Or, you can
log on to CICS and use the
CEDA transaction, or equivalent, to define the WebSphere Application Server adapter task-related
user exit (TRUE) program, WebSphere PLTPI,
and new transaction identifiers for the optimized local adapters. ![[Updated in April 2013]](../../deltaend.gif)

- Add the optimized local adapters external modules data
set to the CICS DFHRPL DD.
You need to add the data set that was created using the copyZOS.sh script
and place it in the CICS DFHRPL
DD concatenation in your CICS JCL
procedure.
The copyZOS.sh script is run
when you enable your server environment to use optimized local adapters.
See the topic, Enabling your server environment for optimized
local adapters, for more information about running the copyZOS.sh script.
- Setup security.
If you are using RACF®,
confirm that the job to define the CBIND class to RACF for the target WebSphere server has run.
In a non-RACF
System Authorization Facility (SAF) environment, execute the equivalent
commands or jobs that set up this support for the Independent Software
Vendor (ISV) security product that you use.
You must grant
read access to the CBIND class for the WebSphere server to the CICS region user ID.
- Activate the optimized local adapters TRUE program.
Refer to the sample job located in the product HFS directory, /<smpe-root>/mso/OLA/samples/DFHPLTOL.jclsamp which
shows how to enable the optimized local adapters TRUE exit during CICS startup. The program added
for this purpose is called BBOACPLT. Update the CICS startup parameters to specify to PLT suffix.
Ensure that the data set created using the copyZOS.sh script
is included in the CICS DFHRPL
DD concatenation located in the CICS startup
JCL.
If you do not want to add the Program List Table for Post
Initialization (PLTPI), you can use the BBOC transaction to activate
the adapter TRUE program. When CICS is
started, log on and issue BBOC START_TRUE to enable the exit and BBOC
STOP_TRUE to stop the exit. BBOC can also be invoked from a sequential
(TYPE=SDSCI) terminal when CICS is
started. Refer to the CICS information
center for more information about setting up and using sequential
terminals during CICS start
up.
When CICS security
is enabled, the user ID where the BBOC START_TRUE and STOP_TRUE executes
must have authority to issue EXEC CICS ENABLE
PROGRAM(BBOATRUE) and DISABLE PROGRAM(BBOATRUE) EXITALL.
- Activate the optimized local adapters CICS Link server in the CICS environment.
You must install
the CICS Link transactions,
BBO$ and BBO#, that are provided by WebSphere Application Server as described in
the topic, Installing the WebSphere BBOC,
BBO$ and BBO# transactions in CICS.
When
you issue BBOC_START_SRVR on a CICS terminal,
the optimized local adapters Link server task is activated.
- Restart the CICS region
after these changes are made, or, run the BBOC transaction to activate
the WebSphere Application Server adapter
TRUE program.
A new BBOC error message displays on the CICS BBOQ extra-partition transient
queue log (under DD BBOOUT) indicating that the optimized local adapters
support is ready for use.
- Set up workload management
(WLM).
